I have another Melissa Stapleton Interiors design reveal to share today!

Before:

The goal for this living area was to turn a room that was never used into a useable and comfortable space perfect for entertaining or just relaxing on the weekends. It was also important to the client to incorporate sentimental pieces like the clock, family photos, globe, and painting from Italy into the design.

After:

Instead of buying new tables, I suggested the client paint the side tables and sofa table and add pretty new knobs.

Not to brag, but I am pretty proud of my pillow making skills!

You can find vintage books just like this at boutiques, but before you
spend a lot for this look buy books from the thrift store and just rip
the covers off.

Instead of paying a ton of $$$ on botanical prints I downloaded these prints from Vintage Printable and had them printed at Office Depot. I found the dark gray mats for $3 and the frames for $4 (half off) at Hobby Lobby. I then painted and glazed the frames to lighten them up and give them character.

The vintage sconces I found at an antique store look perfect on either side of the client's mirror.

The lamps and table decor are from T.J. Maxx, and the adorable sunburst mirror is from Target.
